Lyrics

Carthage

Light and darkness

dance with flames

Fortune and Fate driven

by the clash of iron

It’s time for new Gods

coming from the west


Oh, Carthage


This night will not open the day

The gates of time are closed for you


It’s not a time,

for ivory

nor a time for Iberia’s silver

In the breeze

your purple robes

do not flutter


The waves move against you

This world is falling down


Take me down silent paths

where the trees sway in the wind

Over the sea, over the clouds,

like a lonely bird


Take me down silent paths

where the trees sway in the wind

Over the sea, over the clouds,

like a lonely bird


This world is falling down

This world will burn forever


No more amber,

No more roses and jasmine,

No more illusions,

it’s not a time for dreams

No time for vanity or lovers


Oh, Carthage


No one hears your cry,

look at the stars how small they are.


It’s not a time,

for ivory

nor a time for Iberia’s silver

In the breeze

your purple robes

do not flutter


The waves move against you

This world is falling down


Take me down silent paths

where the trees sway in the wind

Over the sea, over the clouds,

like a lonely bird


Take me down silent paths

where the trees sway in the wind

Over the sea, over the clouds,

like a lonely bird
